Winter is such an in(flu)ential season, and while spring

is my personal favorite season, winter gets my respect.

Winter has a way of changing your plans or making them.

You finally get in this great place to live, then have winter

make you emotional about having to dig your way to out.

Never know the value of a garage til you wake up to a gift 

Surprise snow! Unlike your birthday, you helped to pick

Winter picks it's own beginning and it's own ending too.

While the other seasons are hardly noticeable as they'll

When you think about it, it's always winter--somewhere!

Butterfly was the nickname my grandfather gave me, and would look at me as if to think I was as pretty as a flower.  Perhaps he saw something in me that only exists in butterflies and flowers.

I love butterflies and flowersthey are so much like me. They are colorful with an array of sun enhanced allure. They are whimsical and delightfully unique.  They are as pleasant as the tickle of a gentle breeze. They surprisingly bring cheer to whomever they'd please.

I will cherish the memory of my Grandpaw looking down at me with his bluegray eyes smiling as he'd say to me "hello butterfly."
